The "tools" of MakeUp

In this first operation we will see the main "tools" that can be helpful during the makeup.

First of all the brushes . Now we can find both in the cosmetics shop (to name a few: KIKO , MAC, SEPHORA ) and on e-shop, which of course are only sold online (eg SIGMA , Zoeva , CROWNBRUSH ). There are brushes with synthetic bristles , mainly used for liquid products, and animal bristles, used mainly per i prodotti in polvere, ma possiamo trovare anche pennelli sintetici molto buoni che possono essere utilizzati con prodotti in polvere. Io, personalmente, opto per pennelli sintetici.

Di seguito elencherò i principali pennelli e le loro funzioni:

Pennello da fondotinta.

Flat brush, almost all are made of synthetic bristles. We can find it on the market of various sizes and shapes.

Brush correction.

It did, too, with synthetic bristles. Very similar to that for the only foundation that is smaller. Can be used to apply any cream product such as cream eye shadows.

Brush powder.

It is a very big and soft brush. It helps to spread the powder much more quickly.

Brush blush.

It may have angled bristles, as in the picture, or rounded. And much like powder puffs but smaller. It can also be used with the earth to surround the face.

Kabuki Brush.

Brush small but very compact and is ideal for applying mineral foundation.

Brush eyeliner and eyebrows.

is very thin and has a corner point. It can be used to define eyebrows and eyeliner to draw.

Brush eye shadow.

The bristles are very short and compact, and so the color spread on the eyelid is very intense.

Other accessories that can be useful before and during the Make-UP:

tweezers.

thinning eyebrows or to apply false eyelashes.

eyelash curler.

To bend the brow, in fact. Must be used before mascara. We must be very sensitive and fast (5 sec. Approx.). Eventually, for a better result, we can heat it up a bit 'with the hair dryer.

Cotton swabs.
